+1 on the HV, also I find that a little booze in the mix helps deliver that sensation in your lungs (but other people disagree). TV Butter Rum from tastyvapor.com tastes like candy, but it has a little real rum in the mix. It was the first juice I tried that I can actually feel in my lungs. I haven't stopped vaping it since (or pimping it on the forums :) ).

TV doesn't sell sample sizes, he only sells 1 oz. bottles for $15. There is a "co-op" thread where someone buys a bunch of zero-nic juice, and breaks it into 3 mL bottles, and distributes them to whoever has joined that particular co-op.

You could try a couple of drops of booze in a juice that she likes, but:

A) My first mixing experiments were awful, and that seems to be the norm.

B) It will also reduce the nicotine content of that juice by whatever % of the volume is replaced by booze, so take that into account.

Have you figured out what level of nicotine is right for her?

i think you should have her look at the precise 10440 from supertmanufacturing.com...they are very slick looking and still have the ease of battery replacement...i think these are some of the nicest looking mods around...perfect for a woman :) not being sexist...i love them too..but sometimes girls like things to be aesthetically pleasing...whereas guys usually dont care as much

definitely try getting some VG into whatever mix you have...it will soften the throat hit and taste somewhat, but it may give her the "weight" in her lungs and texture of smoke she's looking for. I have to run at least 30% VG in my mixes or I feel like I'm just sucking air...it's not just the mg's in the juice.

Also you want to get her off the "stock" batteries and into mod batteries somehow. The Precise, The GG Slim, The Ego, Tornado, Hello16, and others are all slightly more powerful voltage and watts(which is the true power) than the stock batteries. I tried every mod and battery all the way up to 6volts. And I've now settled back down to the 18650 battery which is still 3.7v but has an extra amp/watt kick to it and lasts longer at +3.9v than other batteries do. I know she doesn't want a huge monster mod, but everyone is different and there are some classy larger mods that will deliver what she's looking for. Also consider Silver Bullet, BB, Buzz, Chuck(she can customize it with her own graphics even).

When I was a smoker, my "personality" was almost wrapped up in the ritual of smoking. How I ashed, put out a smoke, flicked it, lit it, held it in my mouth or hand..everything was a ritual and part of how I wanted to be seen. I truly get that she doesn't want that to change, but if she gets to try other options and develops new rituals with e-cigs she'll soon find that it's not so much that it has to look and feel like a real cig, but rather that it has to satisfy that need for a ritual..be it the old one or a new one. E-cigs can still satisfy that need just as well.

I hope that made sense.

I started with the 510 and loved it until I got my EGO.It really makes all the difference in the world and the bat lasts way longer.I can go to work and come home on 1 freshly charged batt.I am also a person that smoked 2x25 pack a day.In a week of the ego I was no longer looking for a cig at all. Just mt 2 cents

i think i understand how your wife feels. i definitely prefer that heavy vapor sensation and find it much more satisfying than a throat hit, so it took me a little while to find a combo that worked for me.

i would recommend getting a LR atty or LR carto. however they're only recommended with batteries that are rated at 420-450mah, so the standard 510 battery shouldn't be used. the Ego is a good choice since it's not that much larger than a 510, and that paired with a LR atty with a VG based juice will definitely give her that heavy lung feeling without going into bigger and higher volt mods.

whether you get a LR atty or LR carto, i would definitely recommend getting her a drip tip to go with it. they both definitely need to stay wet and it's so much more convenient to drip directly on to them using one. best of luck to you and your wife, and i hope she find something that suits her!
